fox_forma Posted May 26, 2005 Report Share Posted May 26, 2005 I recieved a bug deflector that i got off ebay for 28 cents and it was broke on arrival but I was able to glue it back and it is holding up perfect. I sanded it down so it was smooth over the glue area and had to spray it black. it was a pewter color to begin with. It came out looking very nice except there is a run mark right in the dead center. I have a bunch of clear spray paint coats on it so i was wondering how i can get out the run. is it basically the same as if normal paint had runs? Do i need to use a very fine grit and wet sand it or buff it out. just seeing if it possible or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon27 Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 I would try wet sanding it.. Maybe start with 1500 grit and work your down if need be, then polish. Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC3 Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 Just make sure to do a couple more coats of clear when you get it sanded out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTOGUY Posted May 27, 2005 Report Share Posted May 27, 2005 By the time your done with all the paint costs and time, you could have bought a new one for $49.00. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm still under what it would have cost me normally I know what you meant tho autoguy but i dont mind messing with it as of now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
